In his interview withThe Sunday Times, Stallone talked about his brief divorce from wife, Jennifer Flavin. They have been married for 25 years and decided to call it quits in August. But, things turned different in the following month, and they eventually reconciled.
“Let’s just say it was a very tumultuous time. There was a reawakening of what was more valuable than anything else, namely my love for my family. It takes precedence over my work, and that was a hard lesson to learn.”
The family’s spokesperson also toldPage Sixthat “they decided to meet again at home, where they talked and worked out their differences.” They assured that the couple was very happy.

Sylvester Stallone Admits Being A Career-Driven Absent Father
Stallone and Flavin have three daughters, and the actor has two sons as well, including Sage, who tragically passed away in 2012. The famous action star confessed his regret over not being an active father to his kids. With a successful career in the movie industry, it is easy to get caught up with fame.
“I didn’t pay enough attention when they were growing up. I was so career-oriented, and now I’m like, ‘Okay, I don’t have that much runway in front of me, and I want to start asking them about their lives.’ I ask them about their day, and they started out a little monosyllabic at first, then I heard someone say, ‘I was just thinking about you.’ Oh my God. I’ve never heard that in my life.”
The actor revealed he felt relieved knowing his daughters care for him.

No one is perfect, and that is a fact, even celebrities fall from grace from time to time. This is why we have to take wise steps before leaping into decisions because fame is temporary while family will be there forever. Hopefully, Sylvester Stallone will make up for lost time with his children.
